It had no meaning.Memories?Negligible.Never expected that the months of training would be wasted like that.Staring at a couple of empty seats,getting our steps wrong.Dissapointing.After what happened,I felt like walking away.They tell us that it wasn't our fault that we got it wrong,but it was different to me,even if there was something wrong,but it wasn't of our doing,a backup should have been arranged.Even if the CD was spoilt or anything,we should have been told what to do if the CD was to be spoilt.Anyway,I don't like to talk about this so much since it already ends..
So,new topic.
I would like to give salutations to some of our best aircraft & pilots of the RSAF,since now,the RSAF is going through a new turnover.This calls some farewells to a couple of our aircraft,which is either going to be out of service in a couple of years,or really really soon.The F-5E Tiger II will only be with us for the next couple of years,possibly 10+ years,or at least until our new F-15SG comes around,since there are a couple of our pilots still in Australia's RAAF training on how to fly the F-15SG's.Our reconnaissance/supporting radar Aircraft,the Hawkeye,you know,the plane with that spinning thing on top...It will be replaced with a Gulfstream G550 special mission business jets, configured for Airborne Early Warning missions.Our most popular and common aircraft,the F-16 Fighting Falcons,will also be out of service soon,most probably 20+years,more or less.So once again,My Salutations to all the aircraft which have been part of the RSAF,contributors to singapore's defense for a long long time,some before I was born,some during my father's NCC days.I bid you farewell,and I believe that even our new aircraft might not be able to service Singapore like how you guys did.
